Spinach & Feta Muffins

There never needs to be an excuse to eat spinach and feta – as they are a marriage made in heaven! The spinach and feta is a super classic combination. I love spinach and feta pizza, and my kids love them too. I remember having spinach and feta muffins somewhere, but it’s just too difficult to recall the cafe. The feta gives a delicious smooth, creaminess that's too difficult to explain unless you have tried it!. I suddenly had the urge to have one last week. I googled the recipe, and found this one. After sending Along to work this morning, I stopped by Magic Fresh to get some spinach. This savoury muffin would make a great brunch meal this morning!

Ingredients
200mls vegetable oil
1 egg
2 cups milk
2 cups raw spinach (compacted)
600g plain flour
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp black pepper (ground)
1/2 tsp salt
4 tsp baking powder
200g diced feta

Method
Preheat the oven to 190deg C fan bake or 200degC regular bake.
Put the oil, egg, milk and spinach in food processor and process until finely chopped. In a separate bowl, mix dry ingredients together. Fold through feta until just coated, leaving a few small cubes for placing on top of each muffin. But I didnt as I decided to use sunflower seeds instead.

Add spinach mix and combine, do not over-mix.
Place in greased muffin pans. I put some sunflower seeds on top and bake at 190degC for approximately 25 minutes. This is great with chutneys. I just eat them with butter spread.

Bon Appetit!!!!
